Problem Statements

​

1. Carbon Removal is a complex idea. How do you communicate that effectively through visual, graphic, and abstract design?
2. Enhanced Weathering sounds boring and technical. Can design be effectively leveraged to make it a simply understandable idea?
3. Every college graduate and young person on the internet seems to care about the climate. There are innumerable ‘Climate’ companies and VCs in India and globally that now exist. How can Alt Carbon stand out by creating a design language that’s globally appreciated, but rooted in Indian sensibilities?
